Sex Offenses We Defend Against in Hamilton County
We handle the following types of cases:
- Child pornography: Our firm approaches child pornography cases with meticulous attention to the legality of evidence collection and the defendant's rights, crafting a defense that addresses both legal and technological complexities.
- False allegations: We prioritize uncovering the truth in false allegation cases by conducting thorough investigations and gathering evidence that challenges the credibility of the claims.

Sex Offender Registry in Ohio: Tiers
Ohio uses a three-tier classification system to categorize sex offenders based on offense severity, with each tier having specific registration and community notification requirements:
- Tier I: These offenders have committed lower-level offenses and must register their address with law enforcement annually for 15 years. This category often includes non-violent offenses.
- Tier II: These offenders have committed moderate-level offenses and must register their address every 180 days for 25 years. These cases typically involve more serious offenses but without physical contact.
- Tier III: This tier is the most serious classification, requiring lifetime registration with address verification every 90 days. This tier includes offenses involving force, minors, or severe sexual crimes.
Each tier carries specific obligations regarding where offenders may live and work, with the goal of maintaining public safety while supporting rehabilitation.
